Overview
This article explains how Vendors can upload Deliverables, which are the final output files of a translation project. After completing the translation and making any required external adjustments, Vendors can upload the final file directly to the Work Unit, ensuring the client receives the finished product.

1. What Is a Deliverable?
A Deliverable is the final version of the translated file, ready for client delivery.
It may include:
Final formatting or layout adjustments
Files edited outside Bureau Works
Any client-ready version of the translated content
Deliverables are always uploaded at the Work Unit level.
2. Vendor Access and Permissions
Deliverable upload is enabled by default for all roles, including Vendors.
Vendors can upload deliverables only to Work Units they are assigned to.
Note: If you do not see the expected upload options, contact your Account Administrator to confirm your permissions.
3. How to Upload a Deliverable
To upload a deliverable:
Open the relevant Project
Locate the Work Unit
Click the three-dot menu (⋮) next to the Work Unit
Select Upload Deliverable
Upload the final file
4. Deliverable Replacement Behavior
If a deliverable file has already been uploaded to the Work Unit and you attempt to upload another file:
The system displays a confirmation message
The message informs you that the existing deliverable will be replaced
You must confirm whether you want to continue or cancel
This prevents accidental overwrites.
5. Deliverable Indicator on Work Units
When a Work Unit already contains a deliverable:
An icon is displayed directly on the Work Unit
This icon visually indicates that a deliverable file has been uploaded
Vendors can quickly confirm whether the final file is already attached before uploading a new one
6. Important Notes for Vendors
Uploading a new deliverable replaces the previous file
Always confirm the replacement message before proceeding
Vendors cannot download deliverables by default
The client will only receive the file notification after the project is delivered
